FOR CONGRESS- FIRST DISTRIC I';
Hon. Julia i Hartridge,
OF SAVANNAH.
THE NEW YORK HERALD AND THE AR
REST OF THE CJ'JNT VON ARNIM.
Tno C mat Von Araim is a Ger
man nobleman of ancient lineage,
high position, ns 1 j.rtuf diplomatic
abilities. He has served nrs country
effectively in many of the most deli
cate ami perilous situations in which
the Germ in Empire has found its self
placed during its recent strides togrout
noss, and a paramount p isrliou in
the arena of European politics. Some
time since, he fell under the displea
sure of the imperious Bismarck, and
was forthwith disgraced. Resenting
this treatment he threatened to pub
lish his defence. Toe Germ ui Pre
mier did not relish the idea of the
expose involved in this proceeding
and remonstrated ii terms at once
emphatic and irresistible. In short,
the Count was suddenly made prison
er, and all his private papers seized
by the strong hand of despotic powi r.
The New York H raid, of the Bth,
very properly censures the conduct of
Bismarck and the German govern
ment in this matter, and we agree
with that paper Cordially in the opin
ion expressed “that freedom and per
sonal rights in Germany na ans, when
it suits the interest or the pleasure of
Bismarck.” The Ht raid seems to be
touched, however, ami put on its
metal that ''Munster Bancroft, editor
Meedoll and othei learned Americans
should see such a close r semblance
between the new Gi nr an Empire anil
these Uuited States as they now
stand in the persona! freedom enjoyed
by the subjects of the rcwpactive pow
ers, and in tlm liberty, eulightcnm ut
and progress that have conic with the
new dispensation. The Herald indig
nantly repudiates the resemblance.
We can only say that we differ em
phatically :n opinion on this point with
our great contemporary, and agree
entirely with Minister Bancroft. Wo
think that the analogy an'l resem
blance between the despotism of the
German Empire and that of the em
pire of radicalism is perfect and com
plete. Looking to the reckless exor
cise of despotic power as now dis
played in sundry Sou tin rn States for
the sole purpose of advancing the
political interests of the Radical par
ty, and of keeping in power plunder
ers aud thieves over an oppn ssed and
down-trodden people. Is it not true
that “freedom aud personal rights i
the United States menus, when it
suits the interest or the pleasuie ot
Grantor Williams?” We know that
that imperial pleasure has not been
exercised to any great extent of late,
or in fact since Mr. Seward has ceased
to tinkle his “little bell, ’ in tiie lati
tude which gives birtli each morning
to another edition of the Herald,
but the less favored clime of tin
Southern States is hourly visited by
the portentous manifestations of then
resemblance to the workings ot the
German Empire. As the public mind
becomes accustomed to the exercise
of these extraordinary powers, we
will not be surprised to see evidences
of their lemtieeiit operation in the
streets of New York and Boston here
after as frequently as they may he
now witnessed amongst the melau
cholly fields of Alabama or the liilis
of Tenm sse. It is only a question
of time, when it will not r-quire the
astute intelligence of a Bumr-ift to
other “learned American travellers”
to trace the resemblance between the
workings of the two governments.
There is one advantage, however.
which the Germans have under their
despot, which woof these Bouiliern
Slates do not enjoy. If we me to be
lieve all Recounts, when Bismarck
makes up his mind to go 'or a Bishop
or a Count, or even a private citizen,
he does it quite tenderly and cau
tiou3lv. His mjrmidoms iu the very
exercise of their inexorable office are
wont to treat the victim with profound
rtspeefc. They do not break into
Lis house at night with oaths and exe
crations to the terror of his hapless
wife an I children; they actually tell
him the cause of his arrest, exhibit
some more formal authority than the
barrel of a musket or pistol, and have
been known to allow him several
hours to arrange his private affairs.
On the way to prison they do not
band-cuff him and allow ihe rabble lo
revile him; and even when the
gloomy walls close upon him, they do
not, starve him or deny him the con
solations of co umnnicatiuo with i in
frmiios. Miffidvtf of . lie at ig.-o tig

liams and Grant are emulous to riva
I'he feats of the Imj erial Bismarck
; We are disposed to make every allow
mice for the paroenuium ol our des

! great hopes that in the prowss and
fullness of time we may a' least reap
the fruits of its it finemeot as \v<> are
